The World Line of the Horizon Star

Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world

An experiment...

As a project for ladyjaida's Evolution Class, copy the meme below into your own journal, then post a comment here linking to the post in which this meme can be found. Make sure the meme itself links back to this post, so that everyone who posts this meme, on her friendspage or not, can link her to their meme-post.

Post your memelink HERE (http://www.livejournal.com/users/ladyjaida/272230.html?mode=reply) Edit: Attempted viral-meme replication-correction DNA, courtesy of prolixfootle. Do not modify the link in the line preceding this edit! It must be replicated, exactly as it appears, as a link back to ladyjaida's original entry, where, if you can follow instructions, you will have posted a comment linking back to your copy of this meme in your journal.

Re:

Memes are somewhat like grafitti...

"Those who write on shithouse walls,
roll their shit in little balls,
Those who read these lines of wit,
eat those little balls of shit!"

Hence, your comment is entirely apropos. Come on f00dave, don't be curmudgeonly: ladyjaida may be dying of a rare form of leukemia and wants to get into Guiness Book of World Records for receiving the most kind meme-linkss from thoughtful strangers, and it's for education! Besides, Microsoft has agreed to send a check for $5 to everyone who forwards this! Just think, if shanmonster got infected with this, and posted a link on her blog, it would jump out of the LJ community like a virus crossing species, it could be picked up by Neil Gaiman and posted on his page. Who knows where it would go from there? Maybe ladyjaida's meme could conquer the world and issue in an age of peace, harmony, and eco-friendly sustainable growth! You really want to stand in oppositon to all of that? You're so heartless, Man...

It's entirely too late!

Oh no...replication error! Now a cancerous, poisoned, vampyric meme is loose in the LJ community! How many LJ users will this oncological horror claim before it exhausts itself in the end-node journals of users who are very unpopular?

Will prolixfootle's heroic effort to fix things via imunization with a recombinant viral counter-meme pay off? Alas, the cold laws of mathematics say that the prognosis is not good! Perhaps ladyjaida should have coded her meme's genetics better (and more clearly) when she engineered it!

You know...I wonder if ladyjaida is registered with Blogshares? A meme would be a brilliant, enterprising way to influence the blog-market in your favor! What an idea. Actually though, contrary to f00dave's speculation about my original subject line, the corruption of ladyjaida's meme was purely unintentional.
